April 8 - May 1, 2010

 

Sir Robert Chiltern, a rising star of turn-of-the-century British politics and a pillar of virtue, is the ideal husband for the charming Lady Chiltern. Indeed, their marriage is the envy of London’s aristocracy. But when the enchanting and conniving Mrs. Cheveley returns from abroad and threatens to reveal a dark secret from Sir Chiltern’s past, a brewing scandal threatens to destroy both his career and marriage.

An Ideal Husband is a timely look at the clash of money, power and ethics through the lens of a quick-witted, suspense-filled melodrama.
